Chapter Fourteen

Willow

Bright sunlight pricks her eyes and Willow groans as she rolls over and pulls a pillow over her face to block the light. The moment she registers just how bright the light is, is the same moment she realizes how quiet her apartment is. She flings off the pillow and stumbles to her feet, rubbing the sleep from her eyes. A check of the clock tells her it’s past 10 a.m. Frank. How could she forget about her little boy? Guilt pierces her heart as she shucks out of her work uniform and into a pair of jeans and a sweater. She kicks her revealing work outfit across the room before picking up the flimsy material and dropping it into the wastebasket near the door. Sliding her feet into a pair of shoes, she heads out the door and down the hall to Liam’s apartment.

It’s almost alarmingly quiet. Willow taps on the door with her knuckles. She can’t hear any movement or the sound of the TV. She presses her ear to the wooden door. Nothing. They can’t have gone to Liam’s apartment and gone back to sleep? She knocks again before wiggling at the doorknob, trying to see if it’s unlocked. It’s not. She pushes back the panic as she dials Liam’s number. When she hears his phone ringing from behind the locked door, her world almost goes black.

Terror is pounding through Willow’s chest as she runs down the stairs. Where is her kid? She can’t believe she left him with someone she’s only known a couple of weeks. What kind of mother did that? The desperate kind, that’s what kind. She slams through the double doors at the bottom of the stairwell and bursts out onto the sidewalk. A quick glance up and down the street comes up empty so she runs to the side of the building where a grassy strip grows between two parking areas. She’s hoping she’ll see Frank and Liam rolling a ball back and forth across the grass. Nothing.

Willow is frantic now, running across the street, cars honking at her as they slam on brakes to keep from plowing into her. She runs the few blocks to the local park, dashing around dog walkers on the sidewalk and almost knocking over an elderly man out for a walk with his nurse.

Shit, he must have heard me on the phone and he knows. He’s probably going to use Frank as bait!

All kinds of crazy shit is running through her mind as she skirts the perimeter of the park, looking for Frank’s bright hair on the swings or monkey bars. She doesn’t see them anywhere. They’re not in the park. Willow heads back around the block, passing the ice cream parlor and turning into the local library. A quick talk with the librarian lets Willow know Frank hasn’t been in with Liam that morning. She jogs down the library steps and looks up and down the street as tears start to pour down her face.
